I've finally gotten over my childhood fear of the Harry Potter series, no thanks to an elementary teacher. And an incident that involved the first movie, for that matter. I still can't bring myself to look at Quirrel without trauma and that urge to hide under my bedsheets and curl up into a ball.
Stupid Conditioned Stimulus.
Also, I must admit I've finished the whole HP series through Wikipedia months before this post, but only now have bothered to check fics. (Shame on me.) I'll try to find the hardback edition of the first book for a test drive.
It is also possible I've finally gotten over my slump in grades, yet I doubt this is going to last long. Italian class has driven me to depression more than once. It'll be back, I know it. Finding solace in my books has been generally helping, but now I can't put anything down. Damn you, National sale.
Wasted a lot of money for the pas t few days. Started when my decision to go to NBS Katipunan led me to buy
The Amber Spyglass by Pullman at a really low price. It was the deluxe edition, mind. So here's my current laundry list:
The Amber Glass by Phillip Pullman Tokyo Babylon Vol. 2 Suki Vol. 1 The Legend of Chun-Hyang Promise Me by Harlan Coben The Woods by Harlan Coben
Just One Look by Harlan Coben The Innocent by Harlan Coben Interworld by Gaiman and ReevesI've spent a lot on these, but surprisingly, not as much as I expected. Only spent P1,590 flat. All hail Booksale and NBS? The Harlan Coben books seem to be following me wherever I go. I'm finding them everywhere now - disturbing.
Anyway, I have to write in my journal. In Italian. For class. Ten sentences minimum. It's proving to be frustrating, when my sentence construction skills are abysmal.
It's gotten very tempting to do no work at all.I am grateful, though, that our professor decided to pass all of us in Italian 10. How thin the line I am close to failing is what I'm worried about this sem.
Enjoying chem is a good sign, yes? Those electron configurations are albeit a tad bit fun.
